Master Page Creation with special symbols

Question

We have an instance using MIL-STD-40051 where we need to have a special page which contains X's around the border for an emergency WP, how difficult would it be to create such a page and if so can someone provide good instructions on how to do this? Attached is a sample of what we need to do.

I can think of a couple of ways to do it. The most obvious is to draw

three background frames (i.e. no flow tag assigned) on the master page.

The top and bottom frames would be horizontal rectangles, and the side

frame would be a narrow, vertical rectangle. Type your Xs into them.

Then, anytime you assign that master page style to a body page, the rows

of Xs will be there on the page.

You could probably also use Silicon Prairie's wonderful AutoText plugin

to create your background text frames, then paste them in at will on a

body page with a couple of keystrokes.
